Pros

It was a paycheck , that is only pro I can come up with

Cons

No work life balance, working all holidays, have to attend self improvement seminars not related to medicine, average pay for some, terrible pay for others. Do not value employees, keep horrible employees and Drs, because they are ‘bodies’. It is all about the $$.

Thanks for taking time to write a review. You didn't indicate your location, but please know your experience is not representative of MedVet overall. Since we are 24/7, we do need to have folks work on weekends and holidays -- I hope that was explained to you when you joined us. And I know it can be hard. In terms of "seminars" not related to medicine, I suspect you are referring to the "R Factor" training that was done in 2017. The goal of that training was to help all of our employees become better leaders. So while it may not seem directly related to medicine, it's very much related to the "Leadership" value of our organization. I do have to disagree that it's all about the money. In 2017, we increased our 401(K) match, made our health insurance better without raising employee premiums, and added a significantly better Employee Assistance Program that's available to ALL employees, even if you aren't on our benefits. We know we, like all organizations, have areas we need to fix or improve. If there are particular managers or hospital leaders that you feel behaved inappropriately, I hope you shared that feedback with your HR partner. We can't get better if you don't share your experiences. Feel free to reach out to me as well. Thanks!

Pros

The staff at the Commerce MedVet have been very supportive and helpful with teaching me the skills I was previously lacking. I got my first feline jugular blood draw and I was also given great tips about IV catheter placement.

Cons

I have no cons, the staff are very welcoming and if you want to learn they want to teach.

Pros

Everyone is super friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Ability to give the best care to all animals walking through the doors. Feeling like I am making a difference in Veterinary Medicine. Never a dull moment.

Cons

Can be overwhelming If you do not like fast paced environments, it may not be the best job for you.
